Hi,
Prominent broncho vascular markings in chest x-ray usually indicate
1. An allergic reaction of lungs (could be dust or anything) or
2. Infection of the lung. Non-homogeneous opacities with airspace usually indicates lung infection.
But usually, the findings in chest x-ray needs to be correlated with clinical findings. If clinical findings and x-ray findings are correlated then needs to be started on nebulization if necessary Antibiotics. Please consult your primary care physician for further management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
